St. Ivan's Night, also known as Midsummer Night, is the night from 23 to 24 June in Hungary. The people of Croatia always celebrate St. Ivan's Day
It is the Friday before the Sunday of their St. Valentine's Day farewell when they make a pilgrimage to the Péruska Chapel to commemorate the day.

In 1983, after the turbulent years of the 20th century, it was possible for the first time to restore the Péruska Shrine of Mary to its former splendour. Every year
hunters, foresters, firemen, chimney sweepers, border guards, the army, the police, young people and devotees of Our Lady gather here every year to make their trilingual pilgrimage. On the first Sunday of June, a trilingual hunting mass and pilgrimage will be held in Hungarian, Croatian and German. This is how this place became a trilingual pilgrimage site. On 8 September, on the day of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary (the vernacular name for the Virgin Mary), local horsemen, horsemen, horse riders and archers are invited to a pilgrimage (bilingual) mass, in order to create a tradition.

Period: 1st Sunday of every month from June to September
